The interview process moved quickly, and I was asked to complete the final round on an accelerated timeline ahead of a company event. I appreciated the team’s time and was informed afterward that they remained very interested and would follow up post-event. Unfortunately, I did not receive any further updates despite multiple follow-ups. While I understand internal priorities can shift, a lack of communication at the final stage, particularly after requesting flexibility from candidates reflects poorly on the overall hiring process. Improved follow-through and timely communication would greatly enhance the candidate experience.
